In March 2021 Christies in New York held the auction South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Including Works by Benodebehari Mukherjee from the Mrinalini Mukherjee Foundation, which included the work Mussoorie Landscape by Benode Behari Mukherjee. The »bidding war« ended at USD 22,500.00 (€ 19,160.35), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Benode Behari Mukherjee - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Frying Fish, which sold at auction in March 2021 for USD 70,000.00 (€ 59,609.98).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen

Im März 2021 führte Christies in New York die Auktion South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Including Works by Benodebehari Mukherjee from the Mrinalini Mukherjee Foundation durch, in der auch die Arbeit Mussoorie Landscape von Benode Behari Mukherjee zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 22.500,00 (€ 19.160,35) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Benode Behari Mukherjee mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Frying Fish beobachtet, die im März 2021 für USD 70.000,00 (€ 59.609,98) versteigert wurde.
